Though it’s still a couple of months off its Australian release, Get Out has probably already flooded your newsfeed with incredible hype. The debut film from Key and Peele‘s Jordan Peele is being praised as a masterful thriller, an incisive satire of race relations in the US with a distinctively black perspective, and a timely critique of white liberalism.

If you haven’t already been incessantly watching the trailer on repeat, the film follows a young black man, Chris (Daniel Kaluuya), as he meets his white girlfriend’s waspy family for the first time. The family — played by Girls‘ Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford and Catherine Keener — seem awkwardly woke and well-meaning, but a mystery soon unfolds when Chris discovers a large number of black people missing (or acting really bizarre) in the area. The film has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 99 percent and has been praised as the “first great paranoia movie of the Trump era”.

Turns out it’s all a little more unsettling when you add the actual Trump family into the mix. Funny or Die have just released a mashup of the film with news and media footage from the first months of the Trump administration. In this iteration, Williams’ character is played by Ivanka Trump, Keener is Melania, and Whitford is Trump.

“I am the least racist person that you have ever met,” Trump says before some awkward public appearances with Kanye and Ben Carson. It fits a bit too well.

Jordan Peele just gave it the seal of approval too:

Get Out is in Australian cinemas from May 4. Here’s the trailer again, because why not:
